wear, rotate your tires
as soon as possible and check
wheel alignment. Also check for damaged tires or
wheels. See “When
It’s Time for New Tires” and
“Wheel Replacement” later in this section for
more information.

rotation intervals.

in your tire rotation.
After the tires have bea rotated, adjust the front
and rear
inflation. pressures
as shown on the Certificatioflire
label. Make certain that all wheel nuts
are. properly
tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque” in the Index.
